CASE # 9 <br /> <br />REVIEW CITY CODE FOR AMENDMENTS RELATING TO THE <br />KEEPING OF POULTRY AND FOWL <br /> By: Zoning Administrator Sylvia Frolik <br /> <br />BackgrOund: <br /> <br />At the July m ~cting of the Planning and Zoning Commission, it was brought to the Commission's <br />attention that the section of Ramsey City Code establishing regulations for the keeping of certain <br />animals needs~o reviewed and amended, especially with respect to fowl and poultry. At that time, <br />thc Commissibn requested that the subject be placed on the August agenda and that a copy of <br />Andovcr's ordinance regarding this issue be obtained. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />Enclosed is the material I received from Andovcr. It appears that the rules for keeping certain <br />animals in Anflover is established in each of their various zoning district chapters within their code. <br />In my opinioni a separate section in City Code which establishes rules for keeping animals, which <br />is what we cu~ ently have, is simpler to understand and enforce. I would like to suggest that we <br />determine thc 8ppropriate numbers of animals to be kept on properties based on acreage increments <br />and amend our current code format accordingly. Also enclosed for your information purposes is a <br />copy of Rams~y's current code regarding the keeping of animals. <br /> <br />I should remind yOu at this time that the City Council has recommended that the proper acreage <br />requirement for poultry and fowl should be 5 acres. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Commission Action: <br /> <br />Will be based on your discussion. <br /> <br />Review Checklist: <br /> <br />P&Z: 8/6/91 <br /> <br />Zoning Administrator <br />Cit3, Administrator <br /> <br />'Il <br /> <br /> <br />
